Starting with an in-depth consultation and assessment
Lucas will determine your needs and any injuries that have been causing additional pain. If you have been dealing with insomnia, tension headaches, ongoing stress, muscle tightness/pain or issues with your fascia and connective tissues, Lucas can apply a range of suitable massage techniques.
Swedish massages tend to be much lighter than a remedial or deep tissue massage—making them perfect for people who are looking to relax without the pressure and temporary pain associated with deeper muscle manipulation. Muscle knots and adhesions will still be broken up, but this is done gradually, with less pressure than deep tissue massages.
Massage assisting with circulation
Swedish massage is particularly beneficial for those experiencing issues with circulation and stored-up fluid, especially in the legs and feet. This can also help with skin tightness, removing pressure caused by swelling.

Improve Your Sleep Cycle
Swedish massage utilises four main techniques:
- Effleurage: smooth, gliding strokes
- Petrissage: squeezing, rolling & kneading
- Friction: deep, circular movements to break down scar tissue & increase blood flow
- Tapotement: tapping with cupped hands or fingers
With a mix of these techniques, Lucas can help to reduce pain and decrease stress. If you are dealing with stomach problems, heart disease, cancer treatment, fibromyalgia, lower back pain, tension headaches or general pains and stiffness, it’s likely a Swedish massage will have a positive effect. However, you should always check with your doctor before pursuing any additional treatments.
